Question

Find the average of the numbers 4 2/3, 6 4/15, 8 4/5, and 9 2/3. Write the solution as a mixed number or a fraction in lowest terms

Answer 1

Explanation:

Add all the terms together and divide by however many terms you have.

4 2/3 + 6 4/15 + 8 4/5 + 9 2/3 = 147/5

Since there's 4 terms (I'm assuming the fractions are separate and not being multiplied).

We divide 147/5 by 4.

147/20 or 7 and 35/100
